1884
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Les faiseurs de fagots is a 1884 by Alphonse Legros, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows two people working in a field. One stands holding a bundle of sticks, wearing a long dress and head covering. The other bends over, breaking branches with a long stick. The ground is rough, with scattered brush and dry plants. The artist focused on rough textures—clothes, sticks, and tangled plants—all drawn with sharp lines. This style makes the scene feel real and busy. Look up Realism next to see more art like this.
Alphonse Legros (French pronunciation: ; 8 May 1837 – 8 December 1911) was a French, later British, painter, etcher, sculptor, and medallist.
